Chitinase production by newly isolated Serratia marcescens B4A was optimized following Taguchi’s array methods. Twenty-three bacterial isolates were screened from shrimp culture ponds in the South of Iran. A chitinase-producing bacterium was isolated based on it’s ability to utilize chitin as the sole carbon source. The isolate designated as B4A, was identified as Serratia marcescens based on i...

 Chitinases have received attention because of their wide applications in the medicine, biotechnology, agriculture, waste management and industrial applications such as food quality enhancer and biopesticide. Excessive use of insecticides has led to several problems related to pollution and environmental degradation. In this study, isolation and identification of native bacterial strai...
